Episode notes

I think it comes down to like how creative you can be within new environments. One interesting outcome from all of this might be that many artists realize their work really isn't that special. There's winners and losers when new tech comes in. And I think the most successful prolific people over time stay adaptive, or they just have such a powerful moat in what they do that it doesn't matter.

ChatGPT broke records in adoption, hitting 100m monthly active users in a matter of months... faster than any other web platform prior. Even faster than TikTok!

But with fast adoption comes equally swift resistance, surfacing questions around how this technology is changing the wider world. Should AI models be allowed in schools? How about the courtroom? Do stock image photographers have a fighting chance?

In this episode, Cal and Steph step into the shoes of many people tackling these difficult questions right now. From the middle school teacher to the college admissions officer, to the owners of a stock image sites, or even the head of the Bar Association... how would you respond? What questions would you be asking?

Listen in to hear Cal and Steph's takes.
